Frequently Asked Questions

Many of our members have done three (3) or less real estate deals. Many have not done any yet. Sometimes our members find and buy their first personal home through their newly gained knowledge. There are many that do a dozen or more a year. If you are still in the exploratory stage of real estate investing, joining I R C is a great thing to do. Understanding the theory of real estate investing is important.
Understanding how it works in our particular market is crucial. I R C puts you in touch with real people in our real marketplace who are making this all work. You have the opportunity to hear local experts talk on areas of interest to the membership. How else are you going to learn from all the pros in town? How else can you efficiently build a profitable team of consultants? We also have national speakers come to town to teach. One of the central purposes of our Association is education. Take advantage of it. Especially if you are just starting out.
The networking in our Association is priceless. We have a number of Vendors who give
I R C members significant discounts. The local, start, and national laws are constantly changing. I R C will keep you up to date on all the latest changes that effect every aspect of real estate.

No. Be sure to check our Calendar in the newsletter and website to get up to date listings on program events, times, meeting places, costs, and features. S I G Meetings are held at several locations around Central Florida and are at regular locations.

Sure! We are always looking for people with legitimate expertise in our local market to inform our members on different areas of need and interest. The presentation must be educational and not a sales pitch. Our membership has first choice on the speaking opportunities. It is easier to speak at our S I G Group meetings than at a General Meeting and there are more opportunities. You should contact our S I G Group Director listed in the Newsletter and discuss your topic and background.

The “Members Only Resources” sections of this website are some of the best resources on our site; be sure you are a current dues paying member so you can access them all. Each month we will change the password. All current, paid dues members will be informed of the change. If your password is no longer working, you have an old password. Check to make sure your dues are current.

The problem is likely not with the website, unless the entire site is shut down. While we have attempted to limit the technology of this site, keeping it as simple and inclusive as possible, there will always be some people whose software and hardware are significantly behind the times. If this is the case with you, and you have not updated your hardware and / or software in at least the last eighteen months, you may not be able to access all that we have to offer. Are you still on dial up? Go to broadband. Consider upgrading your systems. Each year, you will fall further and further behind not only what we offer, but also what is available to you through the entire web. It would be a shame to miss such excellent resources.

Contact us to discuss your products and services and how they will benefit our members.

If you have done a deal, and you would like to share it, we certainly encourage that! It can be a big deal, or a small deal. (To us, each of our member’s successes, no matter how big, are big deals! We are proud of your success, and we encourage you to share it for the benefit of others.) We are all here to learn from each other and to be inspired by each other. Please consider taking the time to give your “Deal of the Month” at the next meeting.
